Transcendence

My paintings are portals; they represent and act as liminal thresholds through which a person causes/experiences a change in their state-of-being.

Transcendence happens within the realization that state-of-being is causal; any change in consciousness creates a literally new physical reality.

Inside these tessellated fields of equilateral triangles, Maslow’s hierarchy is upended; here, self-transcendence is the basic requirement, for it automatically causes our physiological and psychological needs to be met.

The triangles, imperfect of surface and vibrating against their partners, fall and rise, pass through one another, and oscillate. Each painting is one frame in an animation, decaying and becoming at once.

Observe and experience – at the surface of the painting, where once was perceived an impermeable barrier, exists a doorway!
